Natasha's Birthday 2021

Hi Paper Crafters,

Today's card is for our eldest Daughter's Birthday today.  I stamped the flowers, water coloured them and stamped the Humming bird.  For the Humming Bird I added colours direct to the stamp with markers and then spritzed lightly with water and stamped.  I added a yellow wash around the images and when dry splattered some Delicata Gold over the panel.  I used the Rectangle Stitched Die to add some interest and popped up the center panel on some fun foam.  I finished off with the Birthday sentiment and decorated the inside too.

Thanks for popping in today, I love to read your comments.

Hugs,

Jessica's 12

 Hi Friends,

Our Grand daughter Jessica is Twelve today and this is the card we gave her.  Jessica's Parents have organised a new bed for her so that's why the inside is fashioned on a bedroom.  Jess is into dancing and received some beautiful dancing pictures for her last Birthday so the front represents those with the images stamped with Versamark and embossed with Melon Mambo E/Powder.  The 12 and Sentiment have been designed with Copper Foil and Copper E/Powder.

The inside of the card is made with Designer Papers, Copper Foil, a punch, stamped and coloured pillows.  The lamp base is a scent bottle from the Best Dressed DSP series and a hand cut shade.  I added some Enamel Hearts to the front of the Side Table

Thanks for stopping by today, wonderful to see you here!

Hugs,

Hello Friends,

It's the 1st of May and time for a new challenge at CAS Mix Up, which I am hosting and challenging you to Use a Stencil and blend ink colours of the Rainbow.  I used Papertrey Ink's In the Meadow die to make a stencil.  I blended Tim Holtz Distress Inks with my Make Up brushes and then used Simon Says Falling Snow Stencil over the top.  After die cutting the Birds I coloured them with the different distress ink colours and a Copic marker on the branch and mounted them with a black silhouette to give them more dimension.  I finished off with the Sentiment stamped in Black ink and repeated my steps for the inside.

Thanks for your visit today, lovely to see you here.
